Recent News at the Winery:

On August 16^th of this year (2009), we bottled our Traminette / Gewurztraminer blend.  Of course we might be a little biased, but we are delighted with our 2008 Traminette.  Below is a wine description.  If you in our area, please stop in and try this or any of our wines at are recently renovated tasting room. (see pictures on the home page)

A very aromatic full-body white wine with delightful aroma of honeysuckle and allspice, the scent tickles your nose like a good old-fashion bottle of ginger ale.  Alluring flavors of citrus, peach, and dried apricot entices the taste buds. Long, warm finish!  This wine possesses a wonderful clear straw color, a refreshing wine that complements stir-fry and other Asian cuisine. Good as an aperitif, or try with the Thanksgiving turkey too! 

If you are wondering what type of Asian cuisine will pair nicely with the Traminette please take a look at these of gourmet dishes for an idea!

During Mid-May of this year(2009), we planted 400 additional Cab Franc vines to supplement our existing crop.  Our decision to plant more Cab Franc was due to the consistent high quality grapes being produced from our existing vines.  Of course the new vines won’t be producing fruit for 3 to 4 years but the hard work of planting is done and the new vines are doing well after a productive growing season thus far.  In the picture below you might notice that new vines growing in the light blue colored growing tubes, which enhances photosynthesis which in turn leads to greater carbohydrate build-up in the root system.
